llvm-symbolizer - convert addresses into source code locations

SYNOPSIS

:program:`llvm-symbolizer` [options]

DESCRIPTION

:program:`llvm-symbolizer` reads object file names and addresses from standard input and prints corresponding source code locations to standard output. If object file is specified in command line, :program:`llvm-symbolizer` processes only addresses from standard input, the rest is output verbatim. This program uses debug info sections and symbol table in the object files.

EXAMPLE

$ cat addr.txt
a.out 0x4004f4
/tmp/b.out 0x400528
/tmp/c.so 0x710
/tmp/mach_universal_binary:i386 0x1f84
/tmp/mach_universal_binary:x86_64 0x100000f24
$ llvm-symbolizer < addr.txt

OPTIONS

.. option:: -obj, -exe, -e

  Path to object file to be symbolized.


.. option:: -functions [<none|short|linkage>], -f

  Specify the way function names are printed (omit function name,
  print short function name, or print full linkage name, respectively).
  Defaults to ``linkage``.


.. option:: -use-symbol-table

 Prefer function names stored in symbol table to function names
 in debug info sections. Defaults to true.


.. option:: -demangle, -C

 Print demangled function names. Defaults to true.


.. option:: -no-demangle

 Don't print demangled function names.


.. option:: -inlining, -inlines, -i

 If a source code location is in an inlined function, prints all the
 inlined frames. Defaults to true.


.. option:: -default-arch

 If a binary contains object files for multiple architectures (e.g. it is a
 Mach-O universal binary), symbolize the object file for a given architecture.
 You can also specify architecture by writing ``binary_name:arch_name`` in the
 input (see example above). If architecture is not specified in either way,
 address will not be symbolized. Defaults to empty string.


.. option:: -dsym-hint <path/to/file.dSYM>

 (Darwin-only flag). If the debug info for a binary isn't present in the default
 location, look for the debug info at the .dSYM path provided via the
 ``-dsym-hint`` flag. This flag can be used multiple times.


.. option:: -print-address, -addresses, -a

 Print address before the source code location. Defaults to false.


.. option:: -pretty-print, -p

 Print human readable output. If ``-inlining`` is specified, enclosing scope is
 prefixed by (inlined by). Refer to listed examples.


.. option:: -basenames, -s

 Strip directories when printing the file path.


.. option:: -adjust-vma <offset>

 Add the specified offset to object file addresses when performing lookups. This
 can be used to perform lookups as if the object were relocated by the offset.


.. option:: -output-style <LLVM|GNU>

  Specify the preferred output style. Defaults to ``LLVM``. When the output
  style is set to ``GNU``, the tool follows the style of GNU's **addr2line**.
  The differences from the ``LLVM`` style are:

  * Does not print column of a source code location.

  * Does not add an empty line after the report for an address.

  * Does not replace the name of an inlined function with the name of the
    topmost caller when inlined frames are not shown and ``-use-symbol-table``
    is on.

  .. code-block:: console

    $ llvm-symbolizer -p -e=addr.exe 0x40054d 0x400568
    inc at /tmp/x.c:3:3
     (inlined by) main at /tmp/x.c:14:0

    main at /tmp/x.c:14:3

    $ llvm-symbolizer --output-style=LLVM -p -i=0 -e=addr.exe 0x40054d 0x400568
    main at /tmp/x.c:3:3

    main at /tmp/x.c:14:3

    $ llvm-symbolizer --output-style=GNU -p -i=0 -e=addr.exe 0x40054d 0x400568
    inc at /tmp/x.c:3
    main at /tmp/x.c:14

EXIT STATUS

:program:`llvm-symbolizer` returns 0. Other exit codes imply an internal program error.
